997.2 turbo at the beach in San Diego

I thought I would share these photos of my 2010 turbo at Solana Beach in San Diego.

Nice job. I like the contrast. Do you track those rims?

Thank you very much. I didn't take the photos though. They were taken by a photographer for Total 911 Magazine. I don't track the turbo. The numbers on the car are from Porsche Parade 2012. I never took them off. :-)

You don't track the turbo? Your crazy.


Nice photos though. I hope they make a nice article on your car.

My GT3RS is the track car not the turbo. While I love my turbo, it doesn't compare to my GT3RS. Very different cars and both sensational. I am a contributor for the magazine and did a piece on the turbo recently.

Whoa dude, never mind. Nice shots.


I drive a turbo at the track. I think you need to take some nice photos of your GT3RS and share those on this forum. How does the driver seat differ between the two? I would love to learn for your direct experience.


BTW, what would this article be regarding? (just trying to help the interest.)


You may have a Killer suspension or a Killer engine inside. You would need something special for a magazine. Right?

Here are a couple of my turbo and my GT3RS and my GT3RS with a Gen 1 GT3RS. These were part of the feature I wrote for Total 911 Magazine on comparing both 997 generations of Rennsports. Both of my 911s are stock. Both the turbo and GT3RS are thrilling in their own way. Very different cars and rewarding. I have been asked if I will ever sell my turbo or my GT3RS but I won't. My turbo is explosive as turbos are. I am addicted to both! :-)
